## Description
_Around the World Trivia_ is a shareware, or “try before you buy”, quiz game
for up to four players. This is a ‘Trivia Shell’ game meaning that the basic
software can be applied to many different subjects by changing the load screen
and question packs.
The game has three levels of difficulty which it applies to the same question
pack. For example given the question “What sea separates Korea from Japan?” on
the Beginner setting the player would be given the answer and a True/False
buttons; on the Intermediate setting the player would be given four choices;
and on the Advanced setting the player would have to type in the complete
answer. With multiplayer games it is possible to have players on different
difficulty settings – useful when parents are playing against children for
example.
The game has a hint feature and a high score table that shows the top five
scores for each difficulty setting. If the player answers five correct
questions in a row they are rewarded with a bonus question. Games can be
configured to be any length, the default is thirty questions, and can be
restricted to particular topics. There is an optional hint feature. The
shareware game has just 105 questions while the registered games have either
three hundred or six hundred questions.
